A friend had it done a couple of weeks ago. Cost her about £1500 I think.
20/20 vision now but suffered for a while.

Had it done in early August
Vision is better than 20/20, I can read the bottom row of letters
Costs varies depening on what you have done (Blade or Laser to slice eye!) and who you go with. Typically between £1k to £2k per eye. Most places offer you interest free.
No pain, but a little uncomfortable for a few days
I'd recommend it, without a doubt

I got it done FREE of charge a couple of years back through Optimax.
Vision still really good although I get really dry eyes in the mornings and have to use eye drops.
All in all WELL worth it though, freedom from specs and contacts is brilliant, especially on holiday on the beach and all that.
GO FOR IT

I had mine done a couple of years ago, having worn contact lenses for twenty years. There are different types of surgery. I had to undergo one of the more painful ones, due to the thiness of my cornea. I was in absolute agony for a few hours after the anaesthetic wore off. I then had to stay in bed for a couple days in complete darkness. I took a few more days to recover fully. Despite this, I'm delighted with the results and have no regrets whatsover. At some point in the future I might require reading glasses, as the surgery doesn't stop the process of people tending to become long-sited as they get older.

Got mine done in St Petersburg 5 years ago. Can't remember how much i paid, think it may have been £800 for both. Didn't totally correct my astigmatism - didn't expect them to - but eye sight/health is a lot better than when i wore contacts.
(i did a lot of research first, and a friend of mine had it done by the same surgeon previousl)

Sod that. I hate poking anything in my eye, so no contacts or laser surgery for me.
I prefer to grow old gracefully and I look pretty damn good wearing glasses.

I had my left eye replaced eleven years ago, after my own eye was irreparably damaged in a freak Swingball accident. The eye I was given actually belonged to a criminal counterfeiter from Latvia who was eventually executed for his crimes. I\'m grateful for the eye of course, but I do suffer regularly from disturbing and persistant visions of money laundering and corporate embezzlement. I now refuse to handle any banknotes higher than the value of £20, and the mere sight of a Euro banknote can induce an uncontrollable epileptic fit.
I only wish I;d taken that lazer option, but the Latvian;s eye was only £500. They actually had a 2 for 1 offer on that week as well, but thankfully I just needed the one anyway.
